Hospital early release [View all]

After three days surgery and recovery I got back home.
Doctors did a good job reconnecting the colon to the
rectum.
Everything hurts right now but that's because I have
no pain meds.
The procedure leaves a large open hole next to my
belly button where the stoma was.
I had become fond of that shitty thing sticking out.

The worst should be over now as the colon has to relearn it's job.
